VIVEK HATTANGADI

Effective executives ask: “What needs to be done?”

4WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU FAIL

TO ASK

Failure to ask this question may render even the ablest executive ineffectual

Prioritize and focus on one task, at worst two

Evaluate periodically – What needs to be done now?

6 BE FORTHRIGHT

Keep organizations need in the front

Don’t agonize over what’s best for the owner or the boss, or employee or stakeholders

Decisions that are right for the enterprise are the best for all stakeholders

8CONVERT YOUR KNOWLEDGE

INTO ACTION

Ask – What contributions should the enterprise expect from me over the next 18 months?

Devise strategies that specify desired results

The action plan has to become the basis for time management

Do not accept non-performance and under-achievement

10WHEN CAN IT BE SAID: ‘A DECISION HAS BEEN TAKEN?’

When person has been named who is accountable for carrying it out

When people know the deadline

When people know who will be affected by the decision

12COMMUNICATION IS IMPORTANT

FOR EXECUTION

Get input form superiors, subordinates and peers on your action plans

Make sure that both action plans and their information are understood by all

Let each person know what information they will need to get the job done

Effective executives think and say “We” rather than “I”

Page 18: Peter Druckers   what makes an effective leader pps

18 THINK AND SAY ‘WE’

Don’t think or say ‘I’ – think and say ‘we’

Put the organizations needs and opportunities before your personal agenda

Remember – You have authority because of the organization’s trust in you

19 WHY EIGHT?

The first two practices give them the knowledge they need

The next four convert this knowledge into effective action

The last two ensure the whole organization feels responsible and accountable
